00:00well so you grew up basically surrounded by all these like iconic adult british actors who were
00:05legends um which one of them was sort of the most different off screen than they were on screen
00:12uh different off screen than on screen um
00:17there was a few i mean michael gambon yeah was a practical joker through and through um
00:23i'd say probably the most different off screen would probably be him because he could just do
00:27actually or amelda staunton as well um when she's umbridge obviously just absolutely despicable
00:33but i remember in between takes we'd be talking about county cricket and just you know really like
00:39non non-evil things so it was uh it was cool to see people just suddenly flip at a switch
00:45and just go
00:45go from themselves into character absolutely are you still in touch is there a potter cast a group
00:52chat do you know there is a group chat but i'm that person that automatically mutes any chat i'm
00:58added to so i don't know what goes on i had a good so uh tom fountain had a go
01:03at me a couple of months
01:04ago actually about that because i said you never apply i was like oh yeah oops so but it's the
01:11best
01:11way i could describe it is your friends from high school or college like you you may not speak to
01:17those people for a while or see each other but then as soon as you do catch up it's like
01:20no time has
01:21passed absolutely do you try to keep track of their projects like did you watch jason and the
01:27white lotus or did you watch tom on stage and cursed child i haven't seen i've been in town when
01:33tom's
01:33been doing it unfortunately but we do keep in like we do definitely keep up with what people are doing
01:38and and you know you'll send them a message saying best of luck with it and all that and similar
01:43to
01:43this like we've had quite a few guys messages saying all the best for the new season uh so that's
01:47been really nice and yeah you just you just want your friends to do well you know that's so great
01:52so you said you're like not on top of the group chat who is most on top of it was
01:56it tom or someone
01:57else i don't know i'm not i'm not on shop i think of anything like that it's probably tom probably
02:03tom he's a lot more on top of that type of thing and really stirring up the uh getting the
02:07whole yeah
02:07come on slithering pride and it's like mate no griffindor um but yeah he's um yeah he's he's one
02:14he's he's definitely behind that type of thing absolutely no you mentioned the 25 year anniversary
02:19makes you feel old uh how does it make you feel that you know they're sort of rebooting it in
02:24the
02:25sense that the show is now a real thing how does that make you feel uh good luck to them
02:31you know um
02:31i think that they're you know it's it's it's a different different take on it and it's a tv series
02:38and all this kind of stuff um so yeah i everyone involved we just you know we can only wish
02:45them to
02:45have as much fun as we did and uh we've had like i said i think i said earlier we've
02:50had so many
02:51memories since the last film finished of fans telling us all over the world telling us what
02:56these stories mean to them uh whether it was their their first date and now they're married with kids
03:02uh or you know it's it's helped them through dark times or or anything like that like it's
03:07it's really cool to have been a part of something which has meant so much to so many people absolutely
03:12do you think you'll watch it or like i was interviewing one of the lord of the rings movie
03:16actors who was like it might be too weird for me to watch the show i don't think i will
03:20like where
03:20do you sort of stand on that i mean it'll probably be on at the house at some point i
03:24think that's
03:25it's on christmas day isn't it so apart from the king's speech we don't really have much on the tv
03:29in our house on christmas day but we'll probably watch it at at some point um but yeah as james
03:35said we don't know much more about it than that so it'd be interesting to see what the different take
03:38on it is but i mean look whatever whatever comes from this we had the most incredible time doing
03:44the films so i'm sure the guys will have an incredible time with part of the tv show
03:49absolutely have you had any contact with the friend george 2.0
03:54no we haven't no we sent them a message just wishing them all the best and all that kind of
03:58stuff
03:58uh and some other things but uh apart from that is you know let them crack on and have a
04:03do what
04:03they need to do for it
